 Good value August 30, 2010

This is a very good kid CD player. I also enjoy it for my own use but am not an audiophile.
It has been reliable, sturdy and fought over by my 4 kids. They like listening to music as they fall asleep. Biggest drawback is lack of a repeat feature. It just plays to the end of the CD and stops.
 I compared some similar models so you don't have to August 1, 2010

I compared this with 2 other boomboxes in my store. All are near the $50 (w/shipping) price range. Out of the Sony ZSE5 series (the white and colored boomboxes) The NAXA NX-250 and the Cornet BH-426 I found the following.
The NAXA NX-250 sounds the best, somewhat decent bass, though don't expect great bass for less than a hundred bucks
Second in order of performance was the Cornet, with a tinnier sound and less bass than the NAXA. I does look the nicest by far out of the three.
The Sony had by FAR the worst sound. Way worse than the Cornet. No bass, just totally flat mid range.
The radio was hardest to pick up FM on the sony as well. If you can afford it, and Amazon drops the price back to ninety two dollars, the sony CFDG505 CFDG505BLACK DOES sound about 10 times better than even the NAXA NX-250, proving that if sony's low end boombox is j-u-n-k at lest their mid range box is spectacular.
Two other boomboxes to consider (or not)
The JWIN JXCD462DS. Built quality is shoddy, I get lots of these returned, but one interesting thing is that the volume goes nearly twice as loud as any in its league. Strange but true, granted it distorts at its highest volumes.
Also the GPX BCD2306. This thing is horrible, I won't say anything other than the sound is worse that the sony ZSE5. It sounds like its being amplified through a bad telephone. So again, If you can't do yourself the favor of affording the SONY CFDG505, than the NAXA is still the easy winner. And lastly here's a protip: I haven't dealt with CODY in a LONG time, because their products are without a doubt the flimsiest defective cheapest I have come across, even more so than JWIN

Buyers Beware of this radio! Just because this is a Sony, doesnt mean you will be getting Sony quality Sound, as with most of the boomboxes that they make. What you get is a stripped down version of a boombox, with no features, expect for a line in jack, and sound that is about the worst I ever heard on a boombox. I have owned cheap boomboxes before such as Durabrand, Emerson, and Coby, and this is by far the worst one I have ever heard. Sound is this and tinny, and volume is non-existant. You have to turn up the volume almost all the way up just to hear this. This is a waste of money, and its a sin SOny put their name on this. Please buy a cheap walmart or kmart box, as they are better then this. I was lucky, I only paid 12bucks for this on Ebay, and that was even a waste of money. Do yourself a favor and avoid!
 Cheap and it shows May 5, 2010

The thing is compact, but sounds so low that a dog can barely hear it on high.
For listening to children's books it might be Ok, but any kind of rock
sounds like a transistor radio.
I can barely hear it over the 14 inch fan in my basement when I work out.
Find another radio.

This items is great for children. Easy to operate and fairly sturdy. Nothing high tech here but it works well for what we bought it for.
